Lyrics

I don’t love you for what it’s worth
So if you’re leaving can you hurt
Cherry blossom, this is goodbye
Come here lately and you fly
When they say what it’s worth
The world tells you first
Then you know where to hurt
The world’s on fire, so
The world’s on fire, so
The world’s on fire, so have you heard
Lover let me please
Fall on down your knees
Lover let me please, be the one
Know the prayers to make
Flowers made to fade
And when this world to break
It’ll limper
The world’s on fire, so
The world’s on fire, so
The world’s on fire, so have you heard
Yes I loved you as a matter of fact
You first are wrapped up, and that’s that
Lover let me please
Fall on down your knees
You once made me smile
When you strayed
The world’s on fire, so
The world’s on fire, so
The world’s on fire, so have you heard
The world’s on fire
The world’s on fire
The world’s on fire, have you heard
Lover have you breathed
To make for your alief (To make for your belief)
So I’m no longer here by your side
What’s to hide
The world’s on fire
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Monday
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Tuesday
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Wednesday
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Thursday
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Friday
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Saturday
The world’s on fire
Until I’m ready on Sunday

Lyrics

My life in the morning sun
My life in the speeding car
It’s too much to lose
My life in the antique race
My life in electric wire
My life to you, my life to you
My life to you
So hear the way that the world is calling
My life to you
Just show the way and I’ll keep it coming
My life to you, my life to you
My life in the messy groom
My life in the greasy girl
My life to lose
My life in the world of shame
My life in the passing car
My life to lose, my life to you
My life to you
So hear the way the world is calling
My life to you
Just show the way and I’ll keep it coming
My life to you, my life to you
‘Cause my life and my love stand for always
Your life and your love stand for always
Any way that you wanted now
Just say the word you can have it now
My life to you, my life to you
My life to you
My life to you
My life to you
Any way that you wanted now
Just show the world that you want it now
And way that you wanted now
Show the world you can have it now
Any way that you wanted now
Any way that you wanted now
Show the world that you want it now
My life to you
My life to you
My life to you

Lyrics

Boredom’s in the bathroom shaking out the loose teeth
Sally’s in the stirrups claiming her destiny
And nobody nowhere understands anything
About me and all my dreams
Lost at sea
Jack it up Judy set your heart alight
Mayfair mistress of the satellites
Misspent youth- faking up a rampage
To hold off the real slaves
Paid off and staid
And what you never knew
Can never get to you
So fake it
I’ll be your stumbleine
I’ll be your super queen
And make you
Jukebox fuckup hanging round the drugstore
No matter what you say he’ll be back for more
Mommy’s in the manger with the little kids
She’s got her reasons, got my forgets
Of tears and idle threats
Misplaced
And no matter what they do
They can’t get to you
So fake it
I’ll be your stumbleine
I’ll be your super queen
And make you me
Come around ruby I could never sleep alone

Lyrics

Cross your gate and skip a beat
Ring your bell and cross the street
Will you come and take a peek
Who’s there
Time will come suddenly
Change your life faithfully
Ride the wheel what will you see?
Is it me?
The worlds fair/anytime
Anytime you need
Roam the street, the people stare
Thru the gate we walk on air
As we stroll so/debonair
Arm in arm
Lights string out diamond keys
Water washes gentle things
Like washing hung to catch the breeze
From the west
The world’s fair…
And if you know you’ll never leave
And if you know you’ll never know
And what you know can never be
More than me and you
Let it ride/let it roll
Hold my breath/lose control
The world’s fair…
Stand in line and win a prize
Know yourself and get on by
Hold your hand up to the sky
For time
Sew my vote inside your coat
Comb the shadows for higher notes
Write to girls i never wrote
But keep in mind
The world’s fair…
In the state of holding hands
We take our leave, leave no demand
And build our love into the land
For all/who come behind
Cross your gate and skip a beat
Close the door and cross the street
Will you come and take a peek
As I leave
Let it ride/let it roll
Hold my breath/lose control

Ground Control to Major Tom
Ground Control to Major Tom
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
Ground Control to Major Tom (ten, nine, eight, seven, six)
Commencing countdown, engines on (five, four, three)
Check ignition and may God’s love be with you (two, one, liftoff)
This is Ground Control to Major Tom
You’ve really made the grade
And the papers want to know whose shirts you wear
Now it’s time to leave the capsule if you dare
“This is Major Tom to Ground Control
I’m stepping through the door
And I’m floating in a most peculiar way
And the stars look very different today
For here
Am I sitting in a tin can
Far above the world
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do
Though I’m past one hundred thousand miles
I’m feeling very still
And I think my spaceship knows which way to go
Tell my wife I love her very much she knows
Ground Control to Major Tom
Your circuit’s dead, there’s something wrong
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you hear me, Major Tom?
Can you “Here am I floating ’round my tin can
Far above the moon
Planet Earth is blue
And there’s nothing I can do”

Lyrics

Speak to me in a language I can hear
Humour me before I have to go
Deep in thought I forgive everyone
As the cluttered streets greet me once again
I know I can’t be late, supper’s waiting on the table
Tomorrow’s just an excuse away
So I pull my collar up and face the cold, on my own
The earth laughs beneath my heavy feet
At the blasphemy in my old jangly walk
Steeple guide me to my heart and home
The sun is out and up and down again
I know I’ll make it, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you
And for a moment I lose myself
Wrapped up in the pleasures of the world
I’ve journeyed here and there and back again
But in the same old haunts I still find my friends
Mysteries not ready to reveal
Sympathies I’m ready to return
I’ll make the effort, love can last forever
Graceful swans of never topple to the earth
Tomorrow’s just an excuse
And you can make it last, forever you
You can make it last, forever you

Lyrics

Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June
We’ll try and ease the pain
But somehow we’ll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go
I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I’m rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream
And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will
Mother weep the years I’m missing
All our time can’t be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad
When I can, I will
Words defy the plans
When I can, I will
Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I’ll always feel this
No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will

Lyrics

Nothing left to say
And all I’ve left to do
Is run away
From you
And she led me on, down
With secrets I can’t keep
Close your eyes and sleep
Don’t wait up for me
Hush now don’t you speak
To me
Wrapped my hurt in you
And took my shelter in that pain
The opiate of blame
Is your broken heart, your heart
So now I’m all by myself
As I’ve always felt
I’ll betray my tears
To anyone caught in our ruse of fools
One last kiss for me…yeah
One last kiss good night
Didn’t want to lose you once again
Didn’t want to be your friend
Fulfilled a promise made of tin
And crawled back to you
I’m all by myself
As I’ve always felt
I’ll betray myself
To anyone, lost, anyone but you
So let the sadness come again
On that you can depend on me, yeah
Until the bitter, bitter end of the world, yeah
When god sleeps in bliss
And I’m all by myself
As I’ve always felt
And I’ll betray myself
To anyone
TV clip: “…and you need to resist the devil so that he will flee”

Lyrics

Bleed in your own light
Dream of your own life
I miss me
I miss everything I’ll never be
And on, and on
I torch my soul to show
The world that I am pure
Deep inside my heart
No more lies
A crown of horns
An image formed deformed
The mark I’ve borne
A mark of scorn to you
Consume my love, devour my hate
Only powers my escape
The moon is out, the stars invite
I think I’ll leave tonight
So soon I’ll find myself alone
To relax and fade away
Do you know what’s coming down
Do you know I couldn’t stay free?
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free
I shall be free free
Free of those voices inside me
I shall be free
I shall be free

"Now it's, uh, kind of strange, and, uh, kinda hard for me to talk about, but I thought maybe you could help- um, when we start getting physical, rather than having intercourse, he ends up just masturbating himself, and I end up feeling very alienated and unsatisfied, and it's really come between us-"

Lyrics

Feel it
Break your bones
Mr. Jones
Taste me
As I bleed
Taste my need
And spaceboy I’ve missed you
Spinning round my head
And any way you choose me
You’ll break instead
Watch me
Death defy
Defile my life
I don’t need
I don’t care
Please
I want to go home
I want to go home
I want to go home
I want to go home
‘Cause when a lover aches
That’s when a lover breaks
I want to go home
I want to go home
And spaceboy they’ll kill me
Before I’m dead and gone
And any way you choose me
It won’t be wrong
And anyway you choose me
We won’t belong
We won’t belong
We won’t belong
We won’t belong
We won’t belong
We won’t belong

Lyrics

Today is the greatest
Day I’ve ever known
Can’t live for tomorrow,
Tomorrow’s much too long
I’ll burn my eyes out
Before I get out
I wanted more
Than life could ever grant me
Bored by the chore
Of saving face
Today is the greatest
Day I’ve ever known
Can’t wait for tomorrow
I might not have that long
I’ll tear my heart out
Before I get out
Pink ribbon scars
That never forget
I tried so hard
To cleanse these regrets
My angel wings
Were bruised and restrained
My belly stings
Today is
Today is
Today is
The greatest day
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you on
I want to turn you
Today is the greatest
Today is the greatest day
Today is the greatest day
That I have ever really known

Billy Corgan on Pisces Iscariot liner notes:

"Another recorded in an hour type thingers that has been in the box. Part of the Glynis lineage-sweet and sadness I've wasted all my years. I must have written that line a zillion times, it just ended up here. Sometimes when I listen to this I hear who we really are. Frail and gentle- it is what is. Rock power x 100. Note scary ending we would play that part for 15 minutes dum-de-dum-de-dum."

Lyrics

I wasted all my years
Been chasin’ all my fears
For another brighter than him
I gave in long ago
To make it to the show
But it’s not easy
When you’re alone
All your prayers
In my ears
Don’t you care
Whir yourself around
Just to fall back down
Whir yourself around
My honey little girl
C’mon lets go for a whirl
It’s still early
The sun is sleeping
She says she wants to marry me
She says she wants a baby
It’s not easy
When you’re scared
Whir yourself around
Just to fall back down
Whir yourself around
All your prayers
In my ears
Don’t you care

Lyrics

Disarm you with a smile
And cut you like you want me to
Cut that little child
Inside of me and such a part of you
Ooh, the years burn
I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my choice
What’s a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you
Disarm you with a smile
And leave you like they left me here
To wither in denial
The bitterness of one who’s left alone
Ooh, the years burn
Ooh, the years burn, burn, burn
I used to be a little boy
So old in my shoes
And what I choose is my voice
What’s a boy supposed to do?
The killer in me is the killer in you
My love
I send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you
The killer in me is the killer in you
Send this smile over to you

Lyrics

First touch and listen
I light the light
She’ll come in blushes
So I must hide
Make sure on pages
We never die
In blue there’s changes that never stray
False starts that draw the shine of rage
I touch the face of my own age
Cause nothing yet has blessed me yet from
Sorrow
Sorrow
Sorrow
Come what may
It’s here I must wait
To keep the dogs at bay
Ok, ok
Sorrow
Sorrow
Under a moment your eyes turned blue
I choose to love you and never lose
Stay true and sign the cross in you
Slain by Cain
Dear love, come what may
Let fear charge the gates
I’m here, I’m here, I’m here
Here to stay
Ok, ok
Sorrow
Sorrow
Sorrow

Lyrics

I lie, I wait
I stop, I hesitate
I am, I breathe
I meant, I think of me
Is it any wonder I can’t sleep?
All I have is all you gave to me
Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
Turn to the gates of heaven, to myself be damned
Turn away from light
It’s not enough, just a touch
It’s not enough
I taste, I love
I come, I bleed enough
I hate, I’m not
I was, I want too much
Is it any wonder I can’t sleep?
All I have is all you gave to me
Is it any wonder I found peace through you?
Turn to the gates of heaven, to myself be damned
Turn away from light
It’s not enough, just a touch
It’s not enough, just a touch
It’s not enough, just a touch
It’s not enough, just a touch
It’s not enough, just a touch
It’s not enough, just a touch

Lyrics

The clever make the world weary
To pull it from its moorings
To fawn the young wicked roost
To weather the coming storms
They are inside now
They are inside
They are inside now
Saturnine
How I love to waste your time
Saturnine
Saturnine
Goodbye all you widows
Tearstained underneath
Blessed to the many
Who are seeking some relief
They are inside
They are inside now
They are inside
They are inside
You’ll always run
But you cannot find
Saturnine
Saturnine
Saturnine
You were waiting all this time
Saturnine
Saturnine
Camera take this picture
The wreckage is outside
Quick may you hurry
We are losing our light
We are inside now
We are inside
We are inside
You’ll always run
But you’ll never find
Saturnine
Saturnine
How I’d love to make you mine
Saturnine
Saturnine
To the ages I am speaking
To the creatures I am sky
Bloody simple features
Everyone chooses sides
Shatter this faith broken
Walk these summer miles
Leave here while forgotten
Carrying forth this child
Saturnine

Lyrics

Your eyes they send me
To eternity
Your heart may cast me down
To hell and down
But lately it’s your love
It’s condemnation enough
Identify
Please identify
If it’s me you want
Standing by your side
Identify
These tears of mine
Am I lonely
Or am I just alive
And let time decide
Who and what will stand its test
Of love
Your hands were speaking no
I felt the movement go
The ice was breaking so
I wonder why that I’d
Identify with you my love
To leave me empty
And see if I’d survive
For every questioned hour
For every second devoured
You let me wonder you
Into a myth that i missed
Identify
Please identify
If it’s me you want
Standing by your side
Identify
These tears of mine
Am I lonely
Or am I just alive
Am I lonely
Or am I just alive

Lyrics

Shakedown 1979
Cool kids never have the time
On a live wire
Right up off the street
You and I should meet
Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we’d never see an end to it all
And I don’t even care
To shake these zipper blues
And we don’t know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed
Into the earth below
Double cross the vacant and the bored
They’re not sure just what we have in store
Morphine city slippin’ dues
Down to see
That we don’t even care
As restless as we are
We feel the pull
In the land of a thousand guilts
And poured cement
Lamented and assured
To the lights and towns below
Faster than the speed of sound
Faster than we thought we’d go
Beneath the sound of hope
Justine never knew the rules
Hung down with the freaks and the ghouls
No apologies ever need be made
I know you better than you fake it
To see that we don’t even care
To shake these zipper blues
And we don’t know
Just where our bones will rest
To dust I guess
Forgotten and absorbed
Into the earth below
The street heats the urgency of now (written: sound)
As you can see there’s no one around

Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you
Sister soul
Lovers of the tune, sing!
I got you, I got you, I got you
Floating away I think I’ll stay as refused
Floating away I think I’ll stay blue-black
Floating away I think I’ll change next to you
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
Cause you don’t deserve me
But I deserve you

Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you
Sister soul
Lovers of the tune, sing!
I got you
I got you
Mother moon
Mistress of the sun, say
I got you, I got you, oh I’ve got you
I got you, I’ve got you mother moon
Floating away I think I’ll stay as refused
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
Floating away I think I’ll change next to you
Finding a way to make the loss seem new
Cause you don’t deserve me
But I deserve you
Flies for the may queen
But life for the prince
If nobody wins
Then what gets lost?
If I’ve got you

Lyrics

Lily, my one and only
I can hardly wait till I see her
Silly, I know I’m silly
Cause I’m hanging in this tree
In the hopes that she will catch a glimpse of me
And thru her window shade
I watch her shadow move
I wonder if she…….?
Lily, my one and only
Love is in my heart and in your eyes
Will she or won’t she want him
No one knows for sure
But an officer is knocking at my door
And thru her window shade
I watch her shadow move
I wonder if she could only see me?
And when I’m with her I feel fine
If I could kiss her I wouldn’t mind the time it took to find
My lily, my one and only
I can hardly wait till I see her
Oh lily, I know you love me
Cause as they’re draggin’ me away
I swear I saw her raise her hand and wave (goodbye)

Crash and burn
All the stars explode tonight
How’d you get so desperate?
How’d you stay alive?
Help me please
Burn the sorrow from your eyes
Oh, come on be alive again
Don’t lay down and die
Hey, hey
You know what to do
Oh, baby, drive away to Malibu
Get well soon
Please don’t go any higher
How are you so burnt when
You’re barely on fire?
Cry to the angels
I’m gonna rescue you
I’m gonna set you free tonight, baby
Pour over me
Hey, hey
We’re all watching you
Oh, baby, fly away to Malibu
Cry to the angels
And let them swallow you
Go and part the sea, yeah, in Malibu
And the sun goes down
I watch you slip away
And the sun goes down
I walk into the waves
And the sun goes down
I watch you slip away
And I walk
And I know love will tear you apart
Oh and I know the darkest secret of your heart
Hey, hey
I’m gonna follow you
Oh baby, fly away, yeah
To Malibu
Oceans of angels, oceans of stars
Down by the sea is where you drown your scars
I can’t be near you
The light just radiates
I can’t be near you
The light just radiates

Lyrics

Angie, Angie, when will those clouds all disappear
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can’t say we’re satisfied
But Angie, Angie, you can’t say we never tried
Angie, you’re beautiful, but ain’t it time we said good-bye
Angie, I still love you, remember all those nights we cried
All the dreams we held so close seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie, where will it lead us from here
Oh, Angie, don’t you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain’t it time we said good-bye
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can’t say we’re satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, baby
Ev’rywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain’t a woman that comes close to you
Come on Baby, dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie, ain’t it good to be alive
Angie, Angie, they can’t say we never tried
